It's a month of big changes here at Fashionably Ate, and we've got an episode themed around one of them: Steph's new workplace, Fort Langley, BC! We've used the Parks Canada Heritage Gourmet app (see the link below) to find a Fort-related recipe, to some surprising success, and Torey's researching the iconic Hudson Bay blanket. Torey's obsessed with: Indigenous Walks in Ottawa, led by Jaime Koebel -- check out their Facebook page, Indigenous Walking Tours. Steph's obsessed with: the story of a fantastic female hiker in BC in the 1910s, showing up her fellow (male) hikers on an arduous mountain trail. Thanks for listening! Fashionably Ate is on Instagram and Facebook @fashionablyateshow, and we've got photos from this and every episode on Pinterest @fashionablyate. Feel free to email us at
